(full disclosure; I just make cars for fun and for challenges, so this won’t be a traditional lore thread, however there may be generations of the same car from time to time.)


Voltari
Voltari is a Swedish automotive group founded in 1954 by Carl Strauss, in Gothenburg. Strauss founded the company on the premise of building cars for the people, with Voltari's first model, the 1955 1100S compact hatchback. By 1957, Voltari was officially a success within Europe, and started their outward expansion, reaching the US by 1961, with Asia and Africa to follow. Later success was achieved with the introduction of the Iconis, a compact (later mid-sized) hatchback and sedan. At the height of the 20th century, Voltari started to move more upmarket, to compete with the larger luxury brands of the world. Now, in 2021, Voltari is widely considered a top luxury brand, with a focus on comfort and performance.

Akari
Akari is a Japanese automotive brand founded in 1961, by Kenji Akari, in Tokyo. Originally created as a home appliance brand, Akari expanded into cars in 1969 after becoming a household name, with the ASC1000, or the Akari Sports Coupe, 1000cc, a small roadster powered by a 1.0L I4. Presented at the 1968 Tokyo Motor Show, the ASC1000 was an immediate hit, with the entire build allotment for 1969 selling out before production even began. By 1975, Akari had amassed quite a following in the automotive sector, leading them to wind back their appliance production, and place all of their focus on cars. Akari would soon become a hit outside of Japan, with the malaise era in the United States becoming a driving force for sales, with future expansions into Europe and other Asian countries to follow. At this time, Akari had just introduced the first generation of the Solara, a compact and fuel efficient sedan (later a hatchback as well), which became yet another hit. Fast forward to today, Akari is a more affordable, yet premium brand, offering cars for families, and for the dedicated driver.

Llewellyn Motor Corporation

Llewellyn Motor Corporation is an American automotive brand, founded by Welsh immigrant Rhys Llewellyn in 1948, in New York. From day one, Llewellyn was only ever a luxury brand, with their first model, the 1950 Gran Astoria being a perfect proof of concept. From there, Llewellyn expanded exponentially, with a full lineup of premium luxury vehicles. However, in 1972, the emissions crisis hit Llewellyn hard. Scrambling, they partnered with an up and coming Japanese brand, Akari, to found Astrale, to produce efficient and practical cars when they were needed the most. In 1985, Llewellyn used what they learned from Astrale and founded Edison, a youth-oriented brand that would sell cars with the same Llewellyn quality, but at a more reasonable price point. Soon after Edison’s initial founding, their first model, the Montclair, a midsized sedan and wagon duo went on sale. The Montclair was an immediate hit, selling over 120,000 units in the first year alone. Soon after, Edison also expanded into the truck and SUV market, reaching yet another high. Today, both companies are still immensely successful, with Llewellyn selliing the same luxurious cars it was known for originally, and Edison continuing to sell great cars at reasonable prices.

Einhoff GmbH

Einhoff is a German automotive brand, currently owned by The Voltari Group, and currently headquartered in Frankfurt. Einhoff was founded in 1959, in Eastern Germany. Created to provide cheap and reliable transport, Einhoff started producing the 1100iix, an immensely cheap hatchback, powered by a sluggish 1.1L engine. Unchanged until 1989, after the Berlin Wall fell, Einhoff decided to do a pivot. Now controlled by German entrepreneur Henrik Schneider, he brokered a deal with Voltari AB to help make a series of new cars. The first of these cars, the Einhoff 2000 series, was first revealed to the people at the 1990 Frankfurt Auto Show. Seeming to be popular, the 2000 series went on sale in early 1991. To help guarantee production, Voltari AB purchased 43.6% of Einhoff, and started building the 2000 series cars by the handful. Einhoff then became successful and gradually moved upmarket, until sales slumped by 2004 and Schneider passed away, Einhoff then started hemorrhaging money. In 2006, Voltari AB bought the remaining 56.4% of Einhoff, effectively absorbing Einhoff and founding The Voltari Group. Today, Einhoff is a premium automaker, sharing it’s technologies and developments with Voltari, to ensure that both companies continue to remain at the top.

This thread is about a brand’s lineup of cars, and would be best placed in the Car Design subforum. That said, on first impressions, the Nocturne is going to look the part.


2021 Einhoff Nocturne



Introducing the all-new 2021 Einhoff Nocturne, a midsized sedan sporting Einhoff's all new "Stärke in der Technologie", or 'Strength In Technology' design language. The Nocturne represents the future of Einhoff, with it's striking and aggressive front fascia, it's precise and sporty handling, and it's strong presence from any angle.


Taking a closer look at the Nocturne's front fascia, you'll see the Active LED headlamps perfectly integrating with the front grille. Below that, you'll see the distinguishing Gloss Black and Technic Silver front lip, accenting the aggressive lines made above. All Nocturnes proudly wear the Einhoff badge mounted in the top centermost position of the fascia, almost like a badge of honor.


From the rear, the aggressive design of the Nocturne continues, with sharply angled Active LED taillamps, an available rear lip spoiler, and Bright Technic Silver accenting on the trim, and the exhaust. The Nocturne also has front and rear parking sensors with customizable warning settings, front and rear cameras, Adaptive Cruise with Lane Drift Warning, Smart Access, and a whole host of other safety features standard as part of the Einhoff Smart Drive technology package, standard on all Nocturnes.


The technology doesn't end just on the outside of the Nocturne, with each model having Einhoff's new "DuoTouch Pro" system as standard equipment. The DuoTouch Pro system includes two 9.4in touchscreens mounting in the driver and passenger's line of sight, with the upper screen providing control over the 21-speaker Sennheiser Orchestral Audio System, as well as controls for navigation (which is live-linked with Google Maps to provide real time data about the plotted route) and several other functions. The lower screen controls the four-zone climate control, the driver and passenger seat heating/cooling, front seat positioning, and acting as a haptic keypad for the upper screen.

It doesn’t just stop there, with the driver getting a 12.5in Active Information Display mounted directly in front of them, which provides speed data, selected gear, quick navigation access, and several other important aspects of the car, like tire pressure, battery charge, fuel level, etc. The passengers aren’t left out in the cold either; mounted on the back of each front seat is a detachable 9.4in tablet allowing control over the rear passenger seat position, heating/cooling, rear climate control zones, and much more. With all of this tech, the Nocturne has 6 USB-C ports (3 front, 3 rear), 4 USB-A ports (2 front, 2 rear), and one 120v plug-in mounted by the rear seats. All Nocturnes also come with a 1-year free trial of LTE data (provided by several phone service operators; varies by location.) and front and rear Qi wireless charging pads.




Rounding off the extensive interior equipment list, this specific, top-trim, GT-Line Nocturne features 20in diamond-cut alloy rims, a fixed electrochromic panoramic roof, electric power steering, adaptive dampers, and much more. This specific Nocturne GT-Line, as shown, has an MSRP of $51,300, and is painted in Herman Red Metallic. For a base "Premium'' trim, front-wheel drive Nocturne, it'll start at $39,950. All Nocturnes have a $1,195 destination charge.


This concludes our presentation for the all-new 2021 Einhoff Nocturne. Read on for technical information, and a testing sample.

1982 Voltari Hyperion



The 1982 Hyperion was the first generation of Voltari’s smallest car, with a series of small inline-4 transmissions, and a choice between a manual or automatic gearbox. Presented here is the range-topping Corsa 1300T, powered by a 92hp, 1.3L 8-valve turbocharged inline-4, sending power to the front wheels via a 5-speed manual gearbox. Accelerating to 0-60 in 9.2s and reaching a top speed of 130mph, the Corsa 1300T was screamingly quick.



Riding on a compact steel platform, the Hyperion had exceptional rigidity, and was capable of withstanding the elements. This particular Hyperion is painted in Comet Blue Metallic, and set the buyer back $14,400 when it was new.

2022 Einhoff Raven



Introducing the all-new 2022 Einhoff Raven, a 4-door, 4-seat sports car. Representing the pinnacle of modern Einhoff design, from the angular and pointed lights, to the blacked out A-pillar. Powered by a lineup of all-new turbocharged engines, the Raven sets a new bar for performance. Shown in this presentation is the range-topping GT Executive 4Drive, which starts at $100,000. This particular Raven is finished in Borealis Green, with an Agate Grey and Sahara Tan interior, and is priced at $109,000.



Starting from the front, the Raven features Einhoff’s signature Active Matrix LED headlights, providing exceptional visibility in every condition and every environment. Moving down, you’ll see the aggressive lower fascia, with dual LED foglamps and Piano Black trim adding a visual flair unlike anything else. Leading up to the roof, you’re presented with Einhoff’s signature blacked out A-pillar, to the panoramic moonroof.



Moving over to the side profile, you’re presented with Einhoff’s signature “Bi-Color” side vent, and power-deploy door handles, allowing for rapid access without a fuss. GT Executive trims also feature distinguishing “Executive” side badging. From the side, you’re also presented with the 21-inch alloy Multi-Spoke rims, painted in Gloss Black and Bright Silver.



Moving to the rear, you’re presented with an exclusive full length Active Matrix LED taillight unit, adding yet another distinguishing design trait, exclusive only to the Raven. Above the taillights is a dual-element active rear wing, which automatically deploys at speeds above 60mph to improve stability, then closes again at speeds in excess of 130mph to reduce drag at higher speeds. In addition to the rear wing, is an aerodynamic rear splitter, cradling the Akrapovič-tuned sport exhaust system, routed through four polished aluminum exhaust tips.



Moving into the interior, you’re greeted by the latest version of Einhoff’s DuoTouch Pro infotainment system, controlling navigation, climate and seat controls through two 9.9-inch OLED touchscreen displays mounted in the center stack. From this same area, the driver has full control over the Raven’s DriveDynamics adaptive drive mode selectors, with three dials controlling multiple parameters, from suspension stiffness, exhaust mode, to driver assist interference. Moving up to the driver’s view, you’re presented with a 18in digital instrumentation display, relaying the most pressing information to the driver’s eyes, from the selected gear, current speed, to miles travelled. Rear seat passengers aren’t left out either, as both rear passengers have access to a 10-inch entertainment display that can be undocked from it’s mount, allowing passengers to use it as a tablet, and control rear seat functions as well as rear climate.



This now concludes our presentation on the 2022 Einhoff Raven. For technical data, more images and a testing sample, please continue scrolling.

ARCUS-removebg-preview


Introducing the all-new, 2018 Einhoff Arcus, a high-performance, front engined sports coupe. Riding on Einhoff’s all-new MCP1-evo platform, combining high-strength steel for rigidity and aluminum to save weight, the Arcus GTS brings a new definition to performance. This specific Arcus is a GTS trim, painted in Dynmatica Red, with an Auriga Black interior. It also features the Performance Dynamics package, which delimits the top speed to 174 miles per hour, adds carbon ceramic brakes, four-wheel steering, and 20-inch painted carbon fiber rims, bringing the total price to $68,500, up from it’s $61,000 starting price.



With taut lines and aggressive features, the Arcus continues Einhoff’s signature design traditions, with blacked out A-pillars, to the distinguishing Bi-Color side vent. The first 500 Arcus GTS models will also receive a special German flag marquee in the grille, a reminder of Einhoff’s storied history. Powering the Arcus GTS is an all-new 2.5 liter turbocharged inline-5, producing 410 horsepower. That power is sent to all four wheels via a 7-speed twin-clutch gearbox, letting it accelerate from 0 to 60 in 3.7s.




Debuting first on the Arcus GTS is Einhoff’s all-new Active Matrix LED head and taillights, with advanced laser projection and corner illumination. These new lighting technologies bring Einhoff ever closer to the edge of technology, keeping them at the forefront of advanced design.





Moving into the inside, the Arcus GTS features a 2 plus 2 seating arrangement, and a snug and sporty feel, taking inspiration from motorsport. In terms of technology, the Arcus has a 12.5in driver information display, a 15in OLED touchscreen and dual touchscreens flanking each side of the gearshifter, which control climate and seat movement. GTS trim Arcuses also feature LED shiftlights above the driver information display, further cementing the race inspired interior design.

This post is now outdated, with a new version of the car showcased here coming soon. This post will remain up for posterity purposes.


Introducing the 2019 Akari Lumos, Akari’s newest entry to the premium mid-sized sedan market. Powered by an all-new lineup of efficient 4-cylinder engines, and riding on Akari’s new “Synergy” platform, the Lumos represents a new form for Akari. In this presentation, you’ll see two different trims of the Lumos, on the left is the mid-level SE Premium, painted in Gunmetal Grey Metallic, and on the right is the range-topping SR Platinum AWD, painted in Burnt Orange Metallic with a Piano Black contrast roof.
The cars pictured cost $36,000 and $45,400, respectively.




The first version that we’ll cover in this presentation is the SE Premium. Representing the middle of the available trims, the SE Premium features full LED headlights, 18-inch alloy wheels, and a partial leather interior. Powered by the first of two engines available on the Lumos, it receives a 2.5L naturally-aspirated inline-4, making 190 horsepower and 163lb-ft of torque. It’s mated to an 8-speed automatic, and sends power to the front wheels. This powertrain combination allows it to return up to 33 MPG average, making it as efficient as it is stylish. It also allows it to accelerate from 0 to 60 in 8.9 seconds, and reach a limited top speed of 130mph.




The second version that we’ll cover in this presentation is the SR Platinum, the sportier and more luxurious trim of the Lumos. It receives an exclusive Piano Black contrast roof, 19-inch alloy wheels, adaptive dampers, and a full leather interior. Powered by the second available engine for the Lumos, it receives a 2.5L turbocharged inline-4, making 270 horsepower and 260lb-ft of torque. It’s also mated to an 8-speed automatic, and sends power to all four wheels. This powertrain allows the Lumos to achieve 35 MPG combined, and brings acceleration up to 7 seconds for 0 to 60, and the same 130mph top speed.




All Lumos models receive Akari’s new “Jewel Light” LED head and taillights, which make a statement all it’s own. Upon startup, the lights will complete a function check, and if any errors are encountered, the driver will be alerted to the error via the instrument cluster. Upon approach to a Lumos, the car’s systems will detect the keyfob and illuminate the lights, allowing for easier ingress in poorly-lit environments.



The sporting intention of the Lumos is continually characterized by design elements like the lower splitter and aggressive front fascia, apparent even when not in motion. Emotive design is what drives the Lumos inside and out, and is what ties it all together.



This now concludes our presentation on the 2019 Lumos. Please continue scrolling for more images and technical data.

Introducing the 2022 Astrale Sirius, a full-size family crossover. Riding on the “Harmony-S” platform, a co-development between Akari and Llewellyn Motor Corporation. Combining lightweight aluminum and high-strength steel, in conjunction with fully independent suspension, thus making the Sirius exceedingly agile and easy to drive. This platform is also expected to support future petrol and hybrid Akari and LMC crossovers, the first of which to be revealed at the upcoming 2021 Los Angeles Auto Show. This specific Sirius is the top specification Premium AWD model, painted in Icarus Grey. This model will run an MSRP of $45,000 when it goes on sale later this year.




All Sirius models will feature advanced MicroLED head and taillights, with Dynamic Corner Illumination (DCI) and Automatic Approach Projection (AAP), illuminating the lights for easier ingress in poor lighting conditions. The Sirius also receives Akari’s Intelligent Lighting Function Analysis, checking the function of all lighting units upon engine start, and alerts the driver to any outages via the gauge cluster. The Sirius also features progressive front and rear indicators, hinting towards the futuristic intentions of the Sirius and other future Astrale models.



Moving to the inside of the Sirius, drivers and passengers alike are greeted with a high-tech experience like no other. In the front, drivers have access to the standard 13.4 inch Digital Driver Center, with virtual 3D projection. It gives the driver complete control over the Sirius, and provides several modes and features unlike any other vehicle, with different graphics displaying on different drive modes, or a simplified view for those who just want the basics. In the center stack, passengers are greeted with a 32-inch touchscreen, divided into two 16-inch units. The upper section controls navigation, media, and several important functions for the car, whereas the lower screen controls climate for the entire car, and seat settings for the driver and front passenger. Rear passengers are far from left out of the equation, receiving two touchscreen media players, heated and cooled outboard seats, as well as heated and cooled cupholders. The Premium trim also adds a portable vacuum, making messes a snap to clean while on the go.




The Sirius is available with the choice of three powertrains. Standard on all models is a 2.5L naturally aspirated and direct injected inline-4, making 190hp and 163lb-ft of torque. It’s available with either front or all-wheel drive, and is mated to an 8-speed automatic. On the SE and above (and used in the model presented here), you can also equip a 2.5L turbocharged and direct-injected inline-4, making 315hp and 297lb-ft of torque. This engine is only available with AWD, and an 8-speed automatic. Available on SE Pro and above, is a 1.8L turbocharged and direct-injected inline-4 combined with 3 electric motors and a 15kwh battery pack, making it the first PHEV available from Astrale. It has a combined system output of 255hp and 281lb-ft of torque, and is only available with AWD and a 7-speed twin-clutch automatic.



This now concludes our presentation for the 2022 Sirius. For more images, please continue scrolling.

These doors allow for easier exit and entry, especially in tight areas. It also features a power-assisted liftback with Active Detection, allowing the liftback to open with a simple kick of the foot underneath the bottom of the car.



Moving to the interior, drivers and passengers alike are greeted with a high-tech experience like no other. In the front, drivers have access to the standard 12.7 inch OLED Digital Driver Center, with virtual 3D projection. It gives the driver complete control over the Dominus, and provides several modes and features unlike any other vehicle. In the center stack, passengers are greeted with a 15-inch touchscreen with Live GPS Navigation, Android Auto and Apple Carplay. There are two 5.6 inch climate and seat control displays, right at the front passenger’s fingertips. Rear passengers are far from left out of the equation, receiving two touchscreen media players, heated and cooled outboard seats, as well as heated and cooled cupholders. The SportCross trim adds a portable vacuum, making messes a snap to clean while on the go.




The Dominus is available with two powertrains; a 2.0L turbocharged and direct-injected inline-4, making 272hp and 243lb-ft of torque, or a 2.5L naturally aspirated and direct-injected inline-4 making 190hp and 163lb-ft of torque. All models are available with either front or all-wheel drive, and a 8-speed automatic (on 2.5L models) or a 7-speed twin-clutch gearbox (on 2.0T models) On SportCross models, like the one pictured, come with the advanced S-Control all-wheel drive system with an electronic center differential (other models use a simpler viscous differential based version of our S-Control system), and adaptive air suspension.
